Just drill a couple holes in the baffles and be done with it where the rockers are hitting.

I sure would hope..... thanks but I have a buddy that
has offered... but if I cant drive my own ride this
year I wont be going.... plenty of work to do before
I start my hunting season... I would like to have it
back together and clean up my shop before hunting...
looks like a bomb went of in there at the moment....
then I think I'm putting time into my 38.... I need a
gen 3 for it... might even put a turbo on it.. thats
just a street ride... for the wife
EDIT
this is a old pic... its much farther along now

Sorry to hear you're dropping out, Mike. frown I've been following your progress and was hoping to hear good things about the Rampage during DW.

I know the feeling Mike, the new 416 W2 motor my Dad and I just built had .013 of thrust clearance after a 37 mile drive. The old 360 is going back in for DW #4. Its getting new valve springs and an oil change this week and going back in the car this weekend.

Mike does it have to be an OD trans? Dont you have a 727 laying around?
After all your engineering and hard work, it would be a terrible waste not to go?
I wish you the best, Don

That over drive not worth effort you will continue to have problems Get a 727 and forget it. So it rev's big deal like stated get ear plugs If your engine is right it won't hurt it Best of Luck on Drag week!

X2! Throw a 727 at it and get'er done Mike. Everything doesn't have to be perfect, look at MoparBilly and his family. They get it done even if it's in the staging lanes.Dave
